Step 1: plug in 5 and 2 for your X and Y
Step 2: multiply 8*X or in this case 8*5 and you will get 40
Step 3: multiply 3*Y or in this case 3*2 and you will get 6
Step 4: subtract 40-6 and you will get 34
To find the equation of this line in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b, where m is its slope and b is its y-intercept), we naturally need the slope and the y-intercept. We can see that the line intersects the y-axis at the point (0, 4) so our y-intercept is 4, and the line rises 4 along the y-axis for every 2 it runs along the x-axis, so its slope is 4/2 = 2. With this in mind, we can write the line's equation as
y = 2x + 4
Let X = pounds of Bermuda grass needed.
(20 pounds bahia grass x $6.30) + ( X x $3.65) = (20 +X) x $4.90
Simplify:
126 + 3.65X = 98 + 4.90X
Subtract 3.65X from each side:
126 = 98 + 1.25X
Subtract 98 from each side:
28 = 1.25X
Divide both sides by 1.25
X = 28 / 1.25
X = 22.4 pounds required.
